Abstract

Some research has been done on the effect of heritability of the deceptive behaviour, but very little is known about the effect of specific genes. In this study the effect of gene GABRA2 SNP rs279858 on the propensity to lie and on reaction time (RT) in the ‘Circle Game’ was investigated. Significant main effect of rs279858 on RT in ‘Circle Game’ and a significant interaction of rs279858 and sex on the propensity to lie were discovered. A significant learning effect in the ‘Circle Game’ was also found and a significant RT deception effect described in numerous previous studies was confirmed.
